A:AnswerThe LG - 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive, Black Model SP80NB80 is an external optical drive, specifically an external DVD writer. It is designed to read and write DVDs and CDs and does not have built-in speakers or audio output capabilities. Since the SP80NB80 is not a speaker or audio device, you cannot directly connect it to speakers for audio output. If you need to play audio from DVDs or CDs, you will need to use a separate device, such as a computer, DVD player, or media player, that has audio output ports. These devices can be connected to speakers to play the audio from the discs. ~Rita
A:AnswerYou will need to contact the manufacturer for your Chromebook to inquire if it will work with external DVD drives or if the manufacturer has a list of approved or compatible DVD drives your Chromebook will work with. The short answer is yes, you can use an external USB CD/DVD drive with a Chromebook. There are some major limitations to using a Chromebook external DVD or CD drive. External devices are limited as to storage of readable files, and music files are not, without drivers, which cannot be installed on a Chromebook. ChromeOS users may best best off using an SD Card or External Hard drive.Chromebooks can read these disk types when using a proper external USB DVD/CD drive:
CD
CD-RW
DVD
DVD-RW
Blu-ray
Blu-ray RW
Chrome OS can read files on these disks if they are a supported file formats. This means you can easily open image or audio files in ChromeOS from files on a CD or DVD. However, there are some limitations that are discussed below. Notably, the Chromebooks do not have the necessary codecs to plays DVD files. You can connect a CD or DVD player on a Chromebook and use it read read data files if you have a disk written in data format above. Again, very important to stress this when using a Chromebook DVD drive:
You cannot play an audio CD or a movie on a DVD or Blu-ray.
You cannot write anything to a CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk.
Chrome OS does not support optical disks to let you play music or movies. The primary reason for this is that Chrome OS doesn’t come with codecs. Codecs are necessary to compress and decompress large files like DVD videos. If you want to play DVDs on your Chromebook, you’ll need to install Linux. Since there’s no official support, it isn’t surprising that some discs won’t work...^Ivan
A:AnswerHi, you can't play movie DVDs on Chromebook. You can use the connected DVD drive to access or read files from an appropriately formatted, recorded, and finalized DVD-R.. ^Vanessa
